Abstract:The Stockbridge damper (tuned mass absorber) is used on overhead transmission power lines to suppress wind-induced vibrations. These power lines get exposed to various types of wind motions that cause them to vibrate and this causes fatigue failure at the suspension clamp where the maximum stress occurs. Aeolian vibration is the most common wind motion that causes fatigue and eventually, failure to transmission lines. This paper presents the study of an asymmetric Stockbridge damper. A set of experiments were … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
